IGN Ad Leaks Overwatch Release Date

Blizzard’s new MOBA-Shooter Overwatch has been expected to be out this spring for some time, but thanks to a leak from IGN’s advertising department, we have an official Overwatch release date. The hero-based shooter will be released on May 24th, 2016.

The news isn’t official yet and because Activision-Blizzard is a publicly traded company, they have to do things very formally, but this is pretty clear. Overwatch is currently in round two of what’s been a closed beta so far. According to the advertisement, pre-orderers will get early access to another beta in May.
